Inaudio – Offline dictation and read‑aloud for the desktop

说明与用途

Inaudio 是一款桌面应用，提供离线语音识别和文本朗读，所有数据保存在本地，并提供可搜索的转录历史。

问题

Users want private dictation without sending audio to the cloud, but most tools ship audio to external services.

结果

Inaudio provides a fully offline, privacy‑preserving dictation and read‑aloud experience on Windows, macOS, and Linux, with a searchable history and optional low‑latency ASR models.

工作流

• Press a keyboard shortcut to start dictation
• Speak into the microphone
• Inaudio transcribes locally using sherpa‑onnx
• The transcript appears in the app and a floating window
• The user can edit or copy the text
• The transcript is stored in a searchable history
• The user can paste text or copy to clipboard and have it read aloud via on‑device synthesis

证据

I’ve tried a lot of dictation tools, and almost all of them ship your audio off to someone’s cloud

It works the other way too. Paste text or copy something to your clipboard, and it reads it aloud with on-device speech synthesis

Under the hood it’s Electron, React and TypeScript, with sherpa‑onnx doing the speech work

You download a model once, then everything runs on your CPU

One of the options is NVIDIA’s Nemotron streaming ASR model for English, tuned for about 560 ms latency

Is it perfect? No. This is a brand new project with only a handful of stars, so expect rough edges.
